Ukulele Lately Ep. 12: Two Original Songs & Bushman “Contest”?

This week’s episode was delayed until today for a special reason: it’s my brother’s birthday! Two original songs were played: one regarding our girls’ basketball team winning state for the fourth year in a row; and one as a gift for my brother, Lance. The Bushman Ukulele Contest was referenced again…this time not in such a good context.  Do some investigative reporting and let me know what you find out about them. 😉

Shout-out was all about my brother, Lance, today…He’s 37! Happy birthday, Lancey! I love you!

This week’s episode had a two-for-one special for the artist highlight (Grace and Tony; Victoria Vox). Though not a ukulele band, Grace and Tony were highlighted because of the special shout-out below.
